La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Aquagel SPF30 50ml

Product Information

We all want fast application and absorption, which is why sometimes we like the convenience of a face mist sunscreen. That's not what you get here, but saying that, the formula does absorb faster than a cream, and doesn't pill under makeup, another beauty bugbear. A moisturiser containing SPF might make people incorporate sun protection into their skincare routine when they otherwise might not."

La Roche Posay's reputation as a top notch French pharmacy brand precedes it so it's no surprise that the Hyalu B5 Aqua Gel is a product that once tried, becomes a mainstay in anyone's skincare collection. So, if you're staying in the sun for a prolonged period of time it's better to apply sunscreen with high SPF. What SPF should I use on my face? Apply 20 minutes before heading outside and reapply every two hours (more if you are swimming or sweating).And don't forget that health experts also recommend reapplying suncream every two hours of exposure, no matter your skin type. However, it can be easy to forget that last step of your morning skincare routine if it's a recent addition, which can leave you feeling vulnerable later on that day.

As an added bonus, the Aqua Gel primes the skin so also doubles up as a great base for make-up. What's not to love? It comes in a squeezy tube with a pump, making it easy to regulate how much product you're putting on your skin and the water-based gel formula leaves skin feeling quenched and smooth. Make-up with SPF is not enough sun protection alone. Layer it on top of sunscreen. I like the oil-absorbing Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturiser Oil-Free Natural Skin Perfector SPF20 UVB/UVA/PA+++ for a shine-free matte finish. It doesn't leave a white cast like some suncreams can, and is suitable for all skin types including sensitive and oily.
